Re: Dan Snyder Drops Lawsuit Against City Paper

SC, knowing that he would have likely lost the case really makes me wish he went foward with the lawsuit. For those that didnt read the link, the 2 important things:

Quote:
This week Snyder in an interview with the New York Times Magazine said that he actually never read the article.
to echo Saden and to add my own words i just have to say wow what a complete jackass

and

Quote:
“The lawsuit was pursued as a means to correct the public record following several critical factual misstatements in the Washington City Paper article,” Wyllie said. “In the course of the defendants’ recently filed pleadings and statements in this matter, the Washington City Paper and its writer have admitted that certain assertions contained in the article that are the subject of the lawsuit were, in fact, unintended by the defendants to be read literally as true. Therefore, we see nothing further to be gained at this time through continuing the lawsuit. We prefer to focus on the coming football season and the business at hand. We remain committed to assisting with responsible reportage of the Team and the many people involved in our organization, including Dan Snyder, and the principle that the truth and the facts matter in responsible journalism has been vindicated.”
Really, theyre just realizing that now??? What happened to demanding a written apology and running a correction of the facts?

The silver lining is even though this cost the City Paper some money this had to be good for their business and the career of McKenna. And I know he will prove me wrong but hopefully this will help shut Snyder up for a while....
